Mr. Higgins to the Rescue

About Mr. Higgins:

In 2014, the authors David Preece and Jim Webber adopted a black Scottish terrier who was a shy, nervous, and somewhat suspicious mid-life rescue dog. “Mr. Higgins” (the fitting name he came to us with) gradually emerged from his shell and enjoyed his new life in his forever home. Still, on guard with most strangers, Mr. Higgins learned to return love while protecting his home and keeping his dads to their daily routines. Not a fan of pats on the head, “Higgins” prefers a light touch on his sides and burrowing into a safe space. He loves walks, other dogs, treats, and – as a born outfielder – plays fetch.

Mr. Higgins Takes a Stand

A loving family finally adopts Mr. Higgins. However, he still doubts his self-worth and lacks confidence in himself. But then, one day, Mr. Higgins has had enough and boldly rescues a friend from a pack of canine bullies. Mr. Higgins Takes a Stand deals with bullying, caring for others, and gaining self-confidence.

Mommy…What is Heaven?

This book was inspired by my beautiful daughter upon my grandfather’s passing. At the time, she was only three years old, and she couldn’t understand why mommy was so sad, and I couldn’t stop crying. She kept trying to soothe my pain, and rubbing my hair saying, ‘Don’t cry mommy, you can see him again.’ I knew I had to find a way to explain death to her, without it being too overwhelming for a child that young.

I hope this helps other moms and dads who go through the same thing, trying to explain death to a child… too young to understand. May time help heal your broken hearts, and you feel the love of your relatives’ blowing kisses through the wind from Heaven.
